Name
Malcolm Fowler
Police Force
Cheshire
Where do you work
Eastern Area Custody
Suite, Middlewich
What is your rank and job title
Custody Sergeant
How many years have you been running
26yrs
How many years have you been running in the NPCCL
21yrs
What makes you keep returning to the Northern Police League each year
Enjoy the social side,
free food after the race!
What is the highlight of your running calendar
Enjoy the national police
events; Police Sport UK Cross Country, 10 Mile Road Race and Fell Race as well
as the Inter County Cross Country Championships (Running for a relatively weak
county, I can still just scrape into the Cheshire County team)
What other types of running do you do and what other sports
Have dabbled with
Triathlons and Duathlons but find there is a lot of faffing about getting
everything ready for three disciplines and all the hassle of transition from one
event to another. Have taken up Orienteering though which I really enjoy,
sometimes I can be quite successful, but other times I make a complete hash of
it!
Do you have any other hobbies or interests outside sport
Have always been very keen
on Astronomy as well as science in general.
What are your running plans and ambitions for the future
I find I get more
injury-prone as I get older and am certainly slowing down each year, so
ambition is to just try and continue running at a good standard for as long as I
can. Still got eight years to go before retirement so haven't made any decisions
yet, except that I will definitely be retiring as soon as I have completed 30
years, and will NOT be coming back to into an admin post like many retired
bobbies seem to do!
Editor’s comment:
Malcolm has been the winner of the men’s league 9 times in the previous 10
